Beneath the Darkness
Layers upon layers
From bright red to black.
Are filling up the sky for me.
I look up,
See a canvas
With God's paintbrush
tinting the heavens,
The colors of a perfect sunset.
Now, that time has come to us.
Now all is dark.
Yet life is never quiet,
Peepers peep.
And crickets leap.
As they sing their Spring lullaby.
The lights may go out,
But as we sleep
The world is never truly empty.
Life is all around you,
Just look now darling
And you see,
It's never truly empty.
